Abstract: A system that prevents accomplishment of unauthorized communication between a terminal and a communication peer is provided. The system includes a measurement unit and a process execution unit. The measurement unit is arranged on at least one of the terminal or the communication peer to obtain a measured value corresponding to a distance between the terminal and the communication peer.
